It is painful when people who ought to know better are deliberately bent on keeping the masses in poverty and retrogression. You are educated up to Masters degree and live in developed society, you should know and do better. Your education and exposure is supposed to reflect in your thought process.

If you live abroad, it means you've been exposed to better. You know what a working system looks like. You know that quality education should be made compulsory and free to kids. You know that minimum wage should should get you your basic needs - including rent, clothing and feeding. You cannot be thousands of miles across the ocean pushing for policies that drives us deeper in poverty. Are you mad?

I've talked a lot about my life experiences and I'll restate. I went to secondary school with the privileged, and that exposure made me see what a good life was and made me want better for kids that grew up in the environment I grew up in, and for all disprivileged kids in the country. I went to UNIBEN and saw another side to life and realized comparatively that many Nigerian kids have their childhood and youth stolen from them through deliberate systemic poverty. It is not right! Having lived abroad, I lived the experience of a working system and wept for an entire generation of Nigerian youth that has been robbed of dignity of decent living. There is nothing special about the West. If they can do it, we can do it too. The Asians have done it. Other African countries have left us behind. The Nigerian people have to enjoy a decent life and a quality standard of living without having to leave home. We all deserve a better life at home.

As bad as South Africans are, they are evil to foreigners. You Nigerians are evil to your own people. How do you explain that you sit abroad supporting and promoting policies at home that keeps people in abject poverty and sink them further into a hole their generation will not be able to recover from. You are raising your kids to compete globally and take their seat at the tables of this world where countries you reside in are giving free education, preparing their kids for the world of tomorrow in Tech and AI, empowering their kids in STEM, giving millions of dollars in grabt for innovations. You want other people's kids to use your lunch money to start frying akara in 2026. Is that the plan you have for your own kids? The god you serve and the one you don't serve, will strike you mad.

If you are at home supporting this madness, you are not exempted because the whole point of your education is to know how to think. So fvcking think! Dem use poverty swear for you?

This is the new public school in Abia State. 19 others are currently being built.

What they’re doing is transforming already existing schools into this. This is American-standard schooling.

You remember I once criticized their first smart school attempt, which the government later condemned entirely and followed this approach instead.

I’m so impressed with the Abia State Government.

They listen, and they are truly for their people.

Master Chisom Unachukwu from Evergreen Schools, Enugu, will be going to Rome, Italy, next week to watch his student Victor Onwubiko compete with students from 154 other countries at the International STEM Olympiad.

The days of teachers earning their rewards only in heaven are over.

They will be rewarded here on earth. They will drive choice cars, live in mansions, travel for vacations with family, educate their children in Ivy League schools, and support their families better.

Ideally, teaching should be one of the best-paying professions in the country.

We will do our best to change the narrative as far as we can go.

[Alex Onyia @winexviv]

I'm thinking we should have an annual Best Teacher Award where the best teacher each year wins ₦100 million.

We can have other categories too.

Something like a Grammy to celebrate and inspire teachers.

What do you think?

These people have been out of touch for so long, and it is a marvel that they remain not only politically relevant but also charged with leadership. Nothing they have ever said makes sense, no matter how much sycophants try to whitewash it. Nigerian political discourse is largely an IQ test, with really no basis for debate.

The problem with giving all of this talk too much attention is that people get distracted from their true intentions and actions. The government’s local borrowing increased 75% in one year without any meaningful impact on the man on the streets. Those are the issues that deserve attention. They are stealing us blind and distracting us with rubbish conversations.

Amid all of this, what the UK government, the NHS, the RCGP, and other involved bodies are subtly communicating is that ACPs and allied healthcare workers will not be sidelined even in the wake of these two tragic child deaths. Instead, the focus seems to be on crucifying GPs for failing to contact the receiving hospital directly after making a referral, you must had in your referral not and might as well verbally warn the doctors/ACPs on duty about the severity of the incoming case. The message is clear: a simple referral is no longer sufficient; you must proactively call to alert the hospital that a high-risk case is on its way.

If you believe that leadership will ever advocate for you, consider this they are fully aware that an ACP has no business performing the duties of a doctor in an emergency setting. They are not oblivious to this reality. However, the system has been deliberately designed to utilize cheap labour. And one thing you must always recognise is that allied healthcare professionals are often more than willing to work for peanuts, just for the prestige of claiming they are fulfilling a doctor's role. This gives them an insatiable sense of validation, even if only for ten minutes imagine how much more so if they secure a permanent spot on the rota. For many, it is a lifelong ambition.

I strongly advise all UK doctors to proceed with extreme caution. A judgment that you naively assume will fall in your favour may very well not. I am certain that had a doctor been the one to misdiagnose acute appendicitis in this scenario, the GMC would have already taken decisive action. This stark contrast reveals a bitter truth: the world is fickle, and there is no guaranteed justice or fairness at the end of the day. Guard your license jealously. No one will save you not even the professional body you believe has your back.

I just got information that Nigeria has the opportunity to appeal its position at the International Maths Olympiad. This year’s final will be held in Shanghai, China, from July 10th to 21st.

If they succeed, they can participate again starting in 2027. They must commit to funding their students for at least the next 5 years.

The last time Nigeria participated was in 2019. This is the most prestigious academic competition in the world, and we have denied our children this privilege for so many years.

The Ministry of Education, through the National Mathematical Centre, should do the needful now.

We are demanding the basic conditions necessary for doctors who work tirelessly to keep the health system functioning. A healthcare system cannot thrive when those who sustain it are neglected.

Choc City can brag about giving us intelligent rappers with actual literature depth. They broke the first Nigerian solo song to hit one billion streams on Spotify. Olodo can’t ever be associated with that label as far as music is concerned.

A Professor, a former CBN Governor, and writer of economic plans is deploying scarce taxpayers' funds to build an airport in a state that already has one and is near Asaba and Enugu, both with airports.

The same professor cannot renovate the library in Onitsha to train future professors.

This is a misallocation of funds. If money were unlimited, Anambra should build an airport in every LGA, but money is not infinite; the costs of these airports are schools and hospitals not built.

Many infrastructure projects could stimulate growth and productivity more quickly than an airport. Consider a railway linking Nnewi and Onitsha to the standard line in Delta or high-speed internet in all rural areas.

Soludu Disappoints with his lack of imagination, and many who defend this misapplication of funds are simply engaging in politics, not economics.

Elections have consequences. Elect better leaders.

[Alex Onyia @winexviv]

The last time Nigeria participated in the International Maths Olympiad (IMO) was in 2019.

The government's reason then was that it was not important enough.

The actual funding required is less than the cost of a brand new Hilux.

This is the most prestigious academic competition in the world, and our children have been deprived of participation for years.

Education has been pushed to the back seat for a long time, while illiteracy has been elevated.

This needs to stop now!

I don't understand you people. You think you'll be doing a good job and people will hate you just like that? That I'll have electricity, food on my table and cash in my wallet and I will hate you for fun? Please come off this delusion and go do real work

[Sir Dickson @Wizarab10]

My friend said the happiness he gets from being married to his wife equates to the satisfaction people get from financial security when they look at their bank account. He is not even rich but he is very content and very happy. I've known him for over a decade and his financial situation has never affected his mood or relationship. Very decent fellow.

One day he was with me what she called his wife and told her he is feeling very generous and she should ask for anything. This woman said "popcorn" and he laughed. He told her that your husband is feeling generous and you are asking for popcorn. She said, "but that is what I want na. Buy me popcorn."

I just smiled and shook my head because I know many rich people who do not have what he has.

Lokoja Judgment: An Unnecessary Serious Setback for Nigerian Democracy

Today was an exceptionally busy day. I left Lagos in the early hours for Emekuku, where I visited the School of Nursing Sciences, an institution I have consistently supported over the years. It was gratifying to inspect projects funded through my previous interventions, including the school’s computer laboratory. Such investments reaffirm my belief that education remains one of the strongest foundations for national development.

From there, I attended the 80th birthday celebration of the Emeritus Archbishop of Owerri, Most Rev. Dr Anthony Obinna, whose commitment to justice, peace, and the common good has inspired many, before proceeding to Madonna University for another engagement.

It was at Madonna University that I received the court news of the Lokoja court rulings through my brother, Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso.

Every Nigerian committed to the country’s progress should be deeply concerned. This judgment represents another setback for our democracy and the institutions upon which our future depends.

It is regrettable that some who claim to champion democracy now appear determined to weaken the very institutions that sustain it. In doing so, they are undermining public confidence and endangering the future of millions of Nigerians.

The legislature and the judiciary are increasingly being drawn into this pattern of institutional decline. Democracy cannot thrive where institutions lose their independence and credibility.

Those who seek to weaken Nigeria’s democratic foundations will not ultimately prevail. When a similar situation recently affected the ADC, I condemned it without hesitation. I do so again today because my position has always been guided by principle.

My concern is not about who becomes President. My concern is that Nigeria works. Our politics must move beyond the quest for power and focus instead on building a united nation founded on justice, strong institutions, the rule of law, and equal opportunity. That is the Nigeria we owe ourselves and the one we must leave for future generations.

I therefore urge all well-meaning Nigerians to rise above partisan interests and defend our democracy. The survival of our institutions is inseparable from the survival of our nation. It's when we work together that a new Nigeria of our dream is made POssible. -PO

In April 2026, these 3 girls - Chimfumnanya Stephanie Aghaduno, Abasiofon Otobong Sampson, and Damaris Oluwasemilore Oyerinde - represented Nigeria at the European Girls’ Mathematical Olympiad (EGMO) in Bordeaux, France.

66 countries participated, but unfortunately, Huaijin Lou from China won the gold prize. Our girls will try again next year and this time bring home the gold.

It was fully funded by ex-Olympiads from Special Maths Academy with zero support from the government.

Education needs to regain its place in our society.

[ARD OAUTHC @ArdOauthc]

This action is not about confrontation. It is about ensuring that resident doctors can work under conditions that support safe, effective, and sustainable healthcare delivery.
